This is a brand new thing that I am doing to prepare myself for a new challenge I am going to be promising to watch 365 matches in 365 days. That means that I am going to watch one match a day for 365 days from any promotion on the planet earth. That will be coming soon, but for now enjoy Main Event Madness where we break down any match from any promotion. I wanted to start with Brock Lesnar who for the first time was taking on the Viper Randy Orton. It was the first time that in their respective 15 year careers that they were battling in a WWE ring. We all know the stats that are between these guys and the accomplishments that they have achieved. The only criticism that I had was that this was a match that should have happened a long time ago. Nevertheless, it was Viperville vs Suplex City, The Apex Predator vs The Beast Incarnate, Randy Orton vs Brock Lesnar at Summerslam. The feeling going around was how was Randy Orton going to survive against a man who has hit 32 suplexs at Summerslam prior to this event. The idea that Randy could hit an RKO out of nowhere seemed to be his only saving grace heading into this one.

You could feel the intensity in the air as both men made their entrances into the ring for the main event which by the way was the third year in a row that Lesnar was headlining Summerslam (John Cena in 2014, The Undertaker in 2015). The match started exactly the way you thought it was going to with Brock just absolutely dominating the match with his shoulder blocks to the gut and of course the suplexes. Any time Randy tried to initiate any offense, Brock was quick to stop it. At one point in the match, Brock had hot Randy with seven suplexes before Randy finally striked back. Brock had already smashed Randy through the Smackdown live table, but as soon as he tried to do through the Raw table, Randy hit him with an RKO out of nowhere. Randy was able to muster a little bit of offense which included his patent DDT from the middle rope and a second RKO, but Brock would kick out of the ensuing pinfall try. Randy tried to become devious with the thought of punting Brock in the head, but as soon as he went for it he fell victim to an F5.

After an failed pin attempt, Brock was furious and he wanted to punish Randy at all costs as he ripped the gloves off. He began to just maliciously assault Randy Orton with some huge clubbing blows that ended up busting open the viper as he bled in the middle of the ring. The referee Mike Chioda immediately stopped the match and the doctor came in, but that didn’t stop Brock from continuing his assault, but eventually the referee would stop the match completely awarding Brock the win by TKO (Technical Knock Out). Brock would assault Randy Orton one more time in the ring before he set his sights on Smackdown Live commissioner Shane McMahon. It leaves you wondering what is going to happen to Brock as a result of his actions, but more importantly what does it mean for Randy? I want to seriously believe that the rivalry has just begun. Let’s check out some stats and some pics below that from the match itself.

Tonight is the night that the 29TH annual Summerslam takes place live from the Barclays Center in Brooklyn, New York. What is so special about tonight’s Summerslam you ask? Well, let’s start with the fact that this is the first pay per view since the split of the brands Raw and Smackdown and it’s the night that the first ever WWE Universal Champion is going to be crowned. That’s right, the WWE’s version of the participation award is going to be decided tonight between a man who deserves to be WWE World Heavyweight Champion in Seth Rollins going against a man that I feel doesn’t belong there yet in Finn Balor. Don’t get me wrong, I think that Finn Balor is going to bring some real excitement to a show that otherwise lacks it, but that doesn’t mean he should be in a title match right away. There are some plus sides to this pay per view even though they are few. One plus side is that we are finally going to see the beast incarnate Brock Lesnar take on the Viper Randy Orton in a much delayed one on one match. This is a match that I feel should have happened last year when it was WrestleMania time. I’m just thankful that we finally get to see it come true even though it could turn out to be a one sided match. I am hoping for Brock to throw Randy into an F5 and when he does Randy counters it with an RKO.

The other plus side to this event in my opinion is that we are going to get to see the showoff Dolph Ziggler get a shot at the WWE World Heavyweight Champion Dean Ambrose. That promises to be an amazing match with a lot of excitement even though we already know who is going to win that one. The only other match on the card in my opinion that is going to be exciting to watch is the Sasha Banks vs Charlotte match for the WWE Womens Championship. Other than those, a lot of the matches I am either not interested in or are matches that I think could be hit or miss. The last thing I want to say is that I am hoping that the WWE does the right thing and they let AJ Styles win the rivalry between himself and John Cena. There are a lot of matches tonight and I am either pulling for Victoria (Lisa Marie Varon) to show up to be in that match with Natalya and Alexa Bliss or it’s Nikki Bella. Here are my predictions for the night:

Cesaro defeats Sheamus

Sami Zayn and Neville defeat The Dudley Boys

American Alpha, The Hype Bros, and The USOS defeat Breezango, The Ascension, and The Vaudevillians
